Ouch! Sorry to hear. I have arthritis and the only thing that helps (over the counter) with joint/bone pain is Aleve. For gout, you should see your doc for sure. Try soaking in a hot bath with Epsom Salts, as that might help too. Best to you!
I also had painful joints during the first few months off treatment. The worst was my feet. In the mornings, I could hardly walk across the floor to go to the bathroom...very painful. But by the time I was ready for work, the pain was gone and I was good to go. That lasted a few months, as I recall.
I had the pain in the neck during treatment and for a few months after treatment and as Diane said, it would especially come on when I did too much.
I am 2 years post treatment and I can honestly say that I feel that I am 95% myself again from head to toe...but I'm 2 years older...lol.
I don't know if the pain I had in my feet was gout or not because I didn't talk to my doctor about it. If yours is definitely gout, see your doc for help.
Hang in there.
Yep especially my shoulder joints and neck. Going to chiropractor now, to see if that helps. My arms get numb when I lay in bed and read too which is strange. Be of tx for 61/2 months.
I had quite a bit of joint pain the first couple of months post tx. It was weird because during tx the pain was down my back and legs, but after it was from the base of my neck and up the back of my head. Sometimes it really made me despair but now that I'm 5 months post tx, the pain only comes when I try to be Wonder Woman for too many hours. Like everybody on here told me back then... it takes 6 months for the drugs to get out of your system so you just have to hang in there. I found that when things tried to start acting like normal, they went way the other direction before they normalized... for instance my skin.... it was SUPER dry while on tx and then it went to super oily for about a month and now it is pretty much normal... maybe a tad bit dryer than it was before tx, but not much.
Hang in there!
